We are often asked, several times per week, "I have allergies; what's the best way to clean carpets?"
It is still a matter of debate whether carpet cleaning, chemical or steam, is the best method to clean your carpets. There are many opinions on each method, so it is essential to compare them and see what they offer. Once you have done this, you will be able to make an informed choice about how to clean your carpets.
Deep cleaning is also known as steam cleaning. This is because steam cleaning can clean carpeting of at least 97% dirt and bacteria.
It is the only method that gets to the carpet's bottom layer (or "pile") to clean it thoroughly. This makes it the best choice for difficult stains or ground-in.
Carpet cleaning doesn't just revolve around the ability of deep cleaning. The carpet drying time after steam cleaning is longer because the water used for it is heated to extremely high temperatures.
It could take as little as 45 minutes or more, depending on how well the cleaner uses the extraction system and how thick the carpet is. In some cases, we've seen carpets still damp days later, which causes another set of problems. A different method of cleaning may be more appropriate if you require quick access to your space.
Chemical cleaning, as the name implies, involves using chemicals to remove dirt from carpets. Although "dry" shampoos are sometimes used, they can also be called dry shampoos.
They don't dry completely, but they do require less water than steam cleaning. Chemically cleaning carpets will dry much quicker since there is less moisture left to evaporate.
Carpet cleaning should be done in the same way as steam cleaning. However, drying time isn't the only thing to consider. Chemical solutions can only be used to clean the carpets' top layers, so they are ineffective in deep stain treatment.
Additionally, your carpet may contain chemical residues that can cause you or your family to be exposed.
Be sure to understand exactly what chemicals they are using.
Individuals who are concerned about chemical exposure may prefer steam cleaning.
You will need to consider your individual needs as well as your concerns regarding chemicals. You can argue for either side, steam or chemical. The cost can also vary, so that is another consideration.
Whatever your choice, you can be confident that you will receive good results if the product or service is reliable. Ask your neighbors and friends to recommend a carpet cleaner. This is the best way of finding a carpet cleaner.
The carpet cleaner can use a steamer and environmentally friendly cleaning agents. Once he is finished, the carpet will look clean, and he will tell you how much water he used.
